** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: likewise-open
  
  likewise-open 5.4.0.42111-2ubuntu1 on 10.04 64 bit
  
  The CacheEntryExpire setting seems to be ignored. I changed the setting
  to: "CacheEntryExpiry"=dword:0013C680 then imported the registry file
  and issued a lw-refresh-configuration. Cleared the cache, rebooted the
  machine and logged in with a domain user. This worked as expected.
  
  Next I took the machine down, removed it from the network and booted. I
  was able to login used cached credentials. However 4 hours later I ran
  into problems. getent returned no information and logging on with the
  user was not allowed anymore (user not found).  Since 4h
  (dword:00003840) is the default value it would seem that my updated
  entry was not picked up by lsassd.
+ 
+ IMPACT
+ ======
+ Having a short 4h expiration period prevents laptops from being used for any 
length of time outside the corporate network, including even overnight. Not 
being able to effectively change this setting prevents the software from being 
deployed in enterprise environments.
+ 
+ TEST CASE
+ =========
+ 
+ 1. Install likewise-open
+ 
+ 2. using lwregshell, check registry value for CacheEntryExpiry:
+  
+ [HKEY_THIS_MACHINE\Services\lsass\Parameters\Providers\ActiveDirectory]^M
+ "AssumeDefaultDomain"=dword:00000000^M
+ "CacheEntryExpiry"=dword:00003840^M
